Opinons on this Leon Mege setting...

[Moosejaw]

Hi everyone...

I noticed this photo on a post, and I think my sister is going to get this setting with a trillian head. I wasn''t able to attach the photos for some reason...hrm..

Please give me your opinions if you think it will look nice.

A separate idea I am thinking about is to channel set diamonds around the stone in the same setting.

My sister is much more modern in style...so please don''t bash if you just don''t like modern stuff.

Here are the links and if someone could post them please do.

Moose, what''s not to love about that stone? It''s beautiful. Wowee!! MINE here has a great spess with diamond halo. I think it''s a great look.

I''m thinking something like this: http://www.winkjones.com/xcart/customer/product.php?productid=16390&cat=262&page=1

And some yellow gold, too, if she likes that.

Hi Moosejaw! I love the one you posted. I love the color of the stone and I think it will look very nice with the setting you pointed out.

Thanks...its so tough deciding without seeing it...simply because the stone is 3 carats.

Do you guys have any particular feelings with channel set diamonds surrounding the stone? I think it could look great, but just not sure.

It''s ultimately up to my sister, but you guys have great eyes and imaginations.

I really like the ring simple, as is...but that''s just me.

That spess is absolutely gorgeous. I got to see Movie Zombie''s spessertite in real life, and was utterly amazed at how brilliant it was. It''s like it generated its own light.

I don''t think stones like that need any help with accent stones.

They can knock your socks off all by themselves!

i love it, i think it has a great clean modern look as is and think more diamonds would take away from its elegance.

I think the spess is gorgeous and it will look lovely in the setting. I think a diamond halo would be a gorgeous touch.

Very modern! I like the plain setting!!!

Love it!!! I would make the head in yellow gold to highlight the color of the spess better and the shank in platinum. (Just a thought, if you don''t like it that''s cool). Leon''s work is amazing and I''m impressed that he can do modern really well as well as antique pave. This ring will definitely be a head turner, the stone is amazing as well, a great pick!

It''s funny how guys think more is better sometimes in regards to the channel set diamonds. I think you guys are right, and it should remain simple.

The idea of the head of the setting being gold is interesting. Do you think 14, 18, 24, rose gold?
